    Wow, she is really pretty, majestic Blizzard Pearl,
    and notice no buttons along the side of the Nav unit or is it a touch portable unit?

    Thanks!

    For rear must remove interior panel and tap wire to vanity plate light
    For front also need to remove some plastic panels located at core support but some owner prefer to remove whole front bumper. Wire is run from position lights.

    New emblem and LED is pre-pack from manufacture. So technically replace old emblem to new emblem and run wire.

    So before leaving to Shanghai. I left my car at shop who happen to be order my car.
    They take my car to Toyota for speed meter panel repair. Then tint rear window for 40% dark and apply high impact resistant film at from triangle window.
    Due to high Navigation theft in our area my insurance company demand to install high impact resistant film at from triangle window. Toyota knows this design error and they have to fix it!!! If people did know about this. In Japan thieves brake there triangle widow to access interior lock knobs. Then once they unlock the door they remove plastic panes unbolt all nuts and remove navigation unit.
